It's no different than when Athens lost to Logan Elm Burrow's junior year early in the season, which dropped them into a situation where they had to play Warren in Logan. That ONE game was EVRYTHING that year. Same exact situation as Alex/EB

The Athens loss to ASVSM that year had ZERO ramifications on seeding. Jackson's loss to Chillicothe won't have much of an impact. Our D2 teams that lost to Logan last year did not have much impact. If Trimble losses to Alexander in a few weeks, it won't have much impact either.

12 of their 22 games, more than half, are vs Floyd's top 24. How many other teams can say that?

In terms of resumes, Alexander's is rock solid already.

11-3 with wins over Eastern Brown, Ironton, Adena, D2 Athens, which is 10-4 and D2 VC, which is 10-4. Not sure what Western Pike has, but Alex beat them too. Only losses to D1 Chillicothe, D2 Jackson & D2 Wavery (without Terry).

Still have Athens, VC, Trimble and Warren to add to resume.

I’m sure they’ll take pfloyds ranking into consideration

Maybe. Lol

But those teams are in his 24 because they are pretty good with good records - and that WILL be taken into consideration.

If you walk into the D3 room at (19-3) with only losses to Chillicothe, Jackson & Wavery - you're gonna be considered a heavyweight & vying for a top seed.

Sorry bulldog fans, maybe my gut will change as game gets closer

Some coaches will dive into opponents more than others, some give more weight to what division teams are than others, but I think that stuff only comes into play when teams records are really close. I mean its hard to compare quality of opponents sometimes when a coach hasn't seen many of the teams play. How many teams in Jackson's conference have seen the MVL teams play and vice versa?

And THAT’S why you pay attention to the pfloyd rankings ! he HAS seen them , he DOES compare teams based on how they compare vs each other NO MATTER the division AND based on strength of schedule- just saying ...
